I buy them as 'non-operating' reefers, though have thought about how to repurpose the radiator elements as a water heating option.....maybe on the next plan! Also, I like that the storage space is freed up for all the utilities to be placed without encroaching on the main space, meaning that it's one integral unit within the original footprint.
@@naturalassets9413 oh that makes sense. I saw the interior design and it seemed really thoughtful and practical while also somewhat minimal. it looks like you're doing an awesome job!
$50,000?!! Really?.. in the UK u can get these insulated containers for £2,000, I'm struggling to see where the you came up with the $50k, I'd say you have spent $10k at most on that thing 😂😂🤡
I find that the combination of the fact that they are amazingly well insulated, and you use double glazed joinery and have an extractor fan in the shower and a rangehood over the stove then condensation is not an issue at all. They are way warmer and drier than an average cottage of similar size
Great idea!
Very nice and thanks for sharing this with me. I never thought about using a reefer container before. Great idea 👍
Is 50 thousand how much your selling it for or is that the cost it takes to bill it ?
Why not keep the refrigeration unit's motor and use it as a backup generator?

@@danielcaoili6890 Thank you Daniel! I appreciate your thoughts, and for you taking the time to comment 🙂
How did you remove the wheels and landing gear?
Really!!!!
Reefer containers do not have wheels and a Chassis. They only need a Chassis with wheels to be transported by truck, cargo ship, or train.

That's for a completely finish and built out container, not just a plain empty container.
